The intense heat and light generated by nuclear fusion in the sun's core is stored there until it slowly works it's way to the sun's surface and travels outward into space. Astronomers believe that the heat of a ton of hydrogen fused into helium in the sun's core today will not reach the outer surface of the sun for 200,000 years yet.
solar energy → potential energy stored in electrons and ATP → chemical energy stored in sugars
The energy in rice originally comes from the sun. Through the process of photosynthesis, rice plants convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in the form of carbohydrates like starch. When we eat rice, we are essentially consuming that stored energy.
Organic compounds that store the sun's energy include carbohydrates such as glucose, which is produced in plants through photosynthesis. Glucose serves as a primary source of stored energy for both plants and animals.
The process in plant cells that converts energy from the sun into energy stored in food is called photosynthesis. During this process, chlorophyll in the chloroplasts captures sunlight and uses it to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This stored energy in the form of glucose can then be utilized by the plant for growth, reproduction, and metabolic activities.
Plants use the sun's energy to make sugar. During photosynthesis, chemical energy is stored in the fruits, grains, and vegetables made by the sun's energy. Chemical energy in this case is a food made by the sun. In this whole process, light energy is being converted into chemical energy.
The energy that is produced from the sun is stored in plants.

Stored sunlight; the Sun is our only source :(
Solar energy can be stored for later use through the use of batteries. When the sun is shining and solar panels are producing more energy than is needed, the excess energy is stored in batteries. These batteries can then be used to power homes or buildings when the sun is not shining or during the night.
autotroph
yes
It is chemical energy. it transform sun light to chemical energy.
